DATE POSTED: Monday, May 4, 2020 at 4:00 pm Stephanie N. Carlson MMC, City Recorder City of Holladay HOLLADAY CITY COUNCIL SUMMARY REPORT MEETING DATE: AGENDA ITEM: REQUEST: Zone map amendment at 2417 East Butternut Road SUBMITTED BY: Planning Staff; Paul Allred, Jonathan Teerlink ACTION NEEDED: 1) Review a request to amend the zone map of .66 acres of land (28,749 square feet) at 2417 East Butternut Road from R-1-0 to R-1-8. and 2) Hold required public hearing, and 3) Review recommendation from the Planning Commission made on March 3rd 2020 RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the Council to hold the public comment period and move to discuss this request at a later date. Discussion should be based upon policy and procedures of 13.07.030 BACKGROUND: This property was part of the 2002 City of Holladay Annexation area. The zone designations for this area were assigned based upon a concerted effort to find the next, lower applicable zone density, which in this case was single family per 10,000 square feet. The applications rezone proposal is intended to facilitate a lot line adjustment among two existing homes and to create new single-family home building lot from the difference all three equal or greater than 8,000 sq ft. (adding one home to this neighborhood). The Planning Commission, during their meeting held on March 3rd 2020 forwarded a motion to recommend this rezone request by a unanimous vote (6-0). GENERAL PLAN (GP) REVIEW Controlling change in established residential neighborhoods is a particular important land use decision. This priority is successfully supported by the existing ordinance, which includes a range of residential zones to help ensure residential growth matches the vision and expectations of the community. Future residential growth should be accommodated by the utilization of current zoning and densities and not on rezoning. Zone change requests should be carefully considered to accommodate expected future growth, to ensure neighborhood compatibility, and to prevent the destabilization of the existing neighborhoods and loss of the existing established community character, density or intensity. According the General Plan this project area lies at the boundary between two General Plan Districts: MDR-T (Medium Density Residential – Two units) and LDR-S (Low Density Residential-Stable). Both are described as follows: “Medium Density Residential-Two Units (MDR-T) Suggested Zones: R-2-8, R-2-10 This district is intended to accommodate two-family attached unit development with slightly higher densities than the LDR-S districts. New development should be accommodated through utilizing unclaimed density where possible. Proposed rezones within the suggested zone list may be appropriate where increased density will not destabilize the existing neighborhood.” Low Density Residential-Stable (LDR-S)Suggested Zones: R-1-8, R-1-10-, R- 1-15, This district is intended to support a mix of single- family residential development that has been established by historic development patterns. New development should be accommodated through utilizing unclaimed density. Rezones within the suggested zone list may be appropriate where increased density will not destabilize the existing neighborhood. The equivalent single-family densities of both General Plan Districts are approx. R-1-4 through R-1-15. This proposal is at about the middle density equivalency of that range – one home per 8,000 sqft.. Overall, the location of the new home is proposed to be within the MDR-T District (allowing a duplex on 8,00 sqft of land) and is essentially compatible with either land use district as well as existing homes located the west, fronting onto 4500 South. Most of which are sized at less than ANALYSIS: • Road Configuration and Traffic – 4430 South is a minor residential street. In close proximity, 4500 South is a principal arterial roadway. In either case, approval or denial of this petition and possible subsequent approval of a building permit - would make no significant impact on traffic in the neighborhood. • Sidewalk – Though currently missing in at this location will be required to be installed at the subdivision phase upon rezone petition approval • Density – The current R-1-10 zoning allows four dwelling units per acre. The proposed R-1-8 zone would allow up to five dwelling units per acre. The proposal would add one new home to the neighborhood. • Access - This property is primarily accessed indirectly from 4500 South. • Residential Proximity – The subject property is in a residential neighborhood. (See attached maps and photos.) • Health and Safety – If the rezone is approved, it would have minimal negative impact on the health, safety or welfare of the community. • Fire Protection and Access – There would be no negative land use factors relative to fire protection. Planning Staff and the Unified Fire Authority would assess the adequacy of access and fire protection in conjunction with the Building Permit process - as appropriate. • Other Site Issues - Site design features such as curb and gutter; storm drainage and water retention; landscaping and trees,

Giddings and Doyle Stephens U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY Water-Resources Investigations Report 99-4132 National Water-Quality Assessment Program Salt Lake City, Utah 1999 U.S. DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR BRUCE BABBITT, Secretary U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY Charles G. Groat, Director FOREWORD The mission of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) is to assess the quantity and quality of the earth resources of the Nation and to provide information that will assist resource managers and policymakers at Federal, State, and local levels in making sound decisions. Assessment of water-quality conditions and trends is an important part of this overall mission. One of the greatest challenges faced by water-resources scientists is acquiring reliable information that will guide the use and protection of the Nation’s water resources. That challenge is being addressed by Federal, State, interstate, and local water-resource agencies and by many academic institutions. These organizations are collecting water- quality data for a host of purposes that include: compliance with permits and water-supply standards; development of remediation plans for specific contamination problems; operational decisions on industrial, wastewater, or water- supply facilities; and research on factors that affect water quality. An additional need for water-quality information is to provide a basis on which regional- and national-level policy decisions can be based. Wise decisions must be based on sound information. As a society, we need to know whether certain types of water-quality problems are isolated or ubiquitous, whether there are significant differences in conditions among regions, whether the conditions are changing over time, and why these conditions change from place to place and over time.

  • Salt Lake City Watershed Management Plan
    SALT LAKE CITY WATERSHED MANAGEMENT PLAN FINAL DRAFT MARCH, 1999 Salt Lake City Department of Public Utilities Prepared by the Bear West Consulting Team Salt Lake City Watershed Management Plan ‘98 CHAPTER 1 Introduction INTRODUCTION The seven major canyons of the Wasatch Mountains, on the east side of the Salt Lake Valley, provide a high quality water source for approximately 400,000 people. The Salt Lake City Watershed Management Plan (1988 Watershed Management Plan) was formulated in 1988 to protect this valuable watershed. The Salt Lake City Department of Public Utilities (Public Utilities), and other affected jurisdictional parties, are seeking to proactively manage this watershed by addressing issues that have arisen since the 1988 Watershed Management Plan. To accomplish this, a planning process was initiated to develop the Salt Lake City Watershed Management Plan ‘98 (‘98 Watershed Plan). The area encompassed by the ‘98 Watershed Plan includes the seven major canyons of the Wasatch Mountain Range (the Wasatch Canyons), and their drainages. From north to south these drainages are: City Creek, Red Butte Creek, Emigration Creek, Parleys Creek, Millcreek, Big Cottonwood Creek, and Little Cottonwood Creek. The Salt Lake City watershed is comprised of the waters of these creeks, the surrounding lands that support these water sources, and the groundwater recharge areas for the Salt Lake Valley. Along with providing management direction to maintain water quality, the ‘98 Watershed Plan continues the multiple use policy outlined by the 1988 Watershed Management Plan. Large numbers of people use the watershed for a variety of recreational activities. Small and large-scale commercial and residential development is found in five of the seven major canyons.
